Laptop and USB camera or a palmcorder. They're really compact now and under £100

Stuart, Google 'techmoan'. You can read his review blog and watch the reviews on Youtube. Im confident that youll find a suitably cheap and able camera there.

Hi Rapidstu,

If you don't mind your daughter knowing about it, how about mounting one of these on the window.

They record for 2 hours.

Hi I ues a Keyring Spy camera, less than £10, with 8 or 16gb Micro SD card £20, off ebay, 720p HD records 30 min and so light that stick on velcro is all thats required to keep it in place.

I was given a Hi-8 recorder and a camera mounted in a baseball cap a few years ago.
I wanted to fit the camera in the front tow eye of the 944T and slot the recorder into the rear well (not battery side).

Quite keen to get rid of this as its just sitting, if anyone is interested, PM me.

Ok, its not the latest tech, but it gets the job done....
